way from this city TO the coast. II this
connection 1t il not out OF the way TO
remark the DETERMINATIONS against the
improvements of the Pass In the

The work last performed by government
has suffered greatly by coast storms,
owing 10 the unfinished condition in
which that work was left. nOIwithstand-

unexpended. The S5O.OOO recently Gp-
prOpriated will be ali required TO put

This work should not be permitted to

the cheapest, sGrest and most feasible
method for securing deep water out

Texas presents in It's entire length. Not
only so, this result can be secured a, less

ST.. PAUL and Minneapolis are still
blufiing each other over that greatest
population" Minneapolis now claims
$4,000. Of course ST Paul will see that
and raise the amount a few thousands.
This rivalry is the only ridiculous thing
about the growth Of these cities. No
more marvellous development has been
witnessed IN America this century than
the growth of these cities present. The
character Of the buildings, the public
service. street improvements and all the
rest keep pace with populations. They
are as substantially built and as fully
equipped with all modern appliances as
though they had seen a century of
growth.

What Philadelphia says OF Wm Par.

Under the heading IAN audience en-
tranced by the absorbing eloquence of
the speaker, the Philadelphia Press says:
"Parsons is undoubtedly an orator of
deep and true eloquence of force and
varied originality.
HE possesses q voice of commanding
power and his words fell with an ease an
grace that entirely absorbed the atten.
ton of bis audience. From the first ut.
terance to the last all eyes we're fixed
upon the lecturer and when he let the
stage with a low bow you could have
heard a pin drop, go entraneed were his
hearers. 1t is an absolute imposslbility
to do credit to Mr.. Parsons and the
manner in which he handles hia subject"
The Enquirer says: A more magnif.
cant GRAFTON has been seldom delivered
in this city than that to which the de-
lighted assembly listened. The opening
Of the lecture seemed like the opening
of a delightful romance. The lecture
from beginning to end was in itself a
mastery production and the oratory of
Mr.. Parsons showed him to be one OF the
most eloquent. both by nature and by
cultivation, of the many eloquent elo.
c%utionists who have acclaimed from the
stage of the academy.

Where Their MERIT Lies.

When anything stands a test OF fifty
years among a discriminating people
like the Americans it Is pretty good evil
dence that there is merit somewhere.
Such o test BRANDRBrH's FILLS have
stood and thousands of unsolicited testl
monials every year prove their merit.
The Pills are purely vegetable snd are
the result of the highest medical and
chemical skill. They have never been
known to fail in their work; they have
never caused any n the slightest incon-
venlence. no matter when taken, and
there is little doubt that they have really
saved thousands of lives. The best ev.-
dence OF their valae lies in their iacreas-
ing sale. BRANDRETH's PILLS have truly
become o household necessity.
